Item Description

A classic, very aesthetic CABINET calcite specimen from the George Feist Collection and the famous Sweetwater Mine of Missouri"s Viburnum Trend. A 9.0 cm, gemmy and lustrous, amber calcite specimen is proudly set upright on the side of the mounded matrix. The isolated "wing" of matrix protruding from the side of the calcite is striking. The calcite faces are wonderfully stepped-faced. This is an EXCELLENT, 360 degree specimen and you hardly notice, that the basal termination is cleaved against the matrix. Fairly valued at $600-900, for size and quality.
